  • Kyiv struggles to boost troop numbers after Russia launched a new offensive that some fear could close in on Ukraine’s second-largest city. Russian President said on Friday (May 19) that the Russian push aims to create “a buffer zone” rather than capturing Kharkiv for now. For more, FRANCE 24's William Hilderbrandt is joined by Alexandra Filippenko, a political analyst. "Ukraine needs the help of Western allies in order to stop Russian offensive", she said.

      Probably zelesnky is just using his police force wait until zelesnky becomes serious lol. 31k vs 500k. It means 1 million ukrainian elite force is equivalent to more than 10 milopn million soldiers zelesnky could take the active forces lf iran, russia and china at the same time.

    Ukraine war reminds me of the Iraq invasion by US under false justification. At least Russia has a point in not allowing more NATO (US) bases on its borders.
    How could people ever thought that Russia would allow NATO (US) to keep building bases on its borders and do nothing?Or that Ukraine could win a war against Russia? Not even with NATO support. In a hypothetical situation, would US allow China or Russia to build bases on its borders? Remember Cuban missiles crisis?

    Russian forces will bypass Harkov by pincer attack and advance forward to west to control all regions east of denpr river regions

Does she think China is going to come out openly and mention the military assistance they might be giving Russia. The only way Russia has been able to withstand the unprecedent sanctions has been through significant help it gets from Russia.

    NATO's actual leader, the US, in terms of foreign policy, is to be regarded as an imperialist rogue state. The wars and coups the US has initiated or interfered in are countless and millions of civilians have been killed. In almost all cases, it has also involved countries far from American territory that themselves did not threaten the United States in any way. It has simply been about geopolitics and about maintaining US power and influence.
    France's presence and military operations in a number of African countries "to protect its interests" is another of many examples of how NATO is not only a defense alliance, but also an alliance consisting of imperialist actors.
